Attention! We have recently (7 Aug) completed a "clean-out" of old listings in the Gearslutz Member Services directory. Any & all listings that were posted more than 365 days ago have been deleted so that we can ensure the directory remains up-to-date. If you had a listing which was for an active service, you will need to resubmit it - please do so at your leisure. Thanks for your help!

What headphones would you recommend in the $100-$200 range.
This is for use at home, mostly guitar, vocal, synthesizers, piano.
Of course, for music listening.
Currently I have a crappy set of Koss headphones. (UR/29). I guess they're not bad for what they cost. I need an upgrade. I have two very small children and work at night.
Thanks for the recommendations.

spend a little extra dough and get a pair of grados (125's or higher), ultrasones, or sennheiser 600'ss or 650's. don't let people tell you that their 7506's "sound just fine" reference headphones they are not!

When you look at the specs they really don’t tell you much.
Some specs do not state the +/- dB which tells you the spec mean s
almost nothing,

Point being, please listen to anything you can get your hands on.
I think you will find that like me the differences between headsets
are UNBELIEVABLE. You cannot just use price or sales hype.

I prefer the Sennheiser HD650 or Ultrasone PROline 750 depending on
what I am doing. (When I first heard Ultrasones I did not care for them.
Must be a developed taste. Because these became one of my favorites.
